    excellent staff

    This place fits me perfectly with excellent wi-fi, a cozy bar/lounge area, and beach access. The staff helped me with a late check-out on my first visit. I highly recommend it and will return for Christmas!

    modern room
    lively bar

    higgins beach inn was a fantastic stop on our new england adventure. the location was perfect, nestled in a peaceful neighborhood just a short stroll to the beach. our room, the swells king, was modern and comfortable with a king bed. the hotel bar was lively and served a delicious bar dinner menu, which was a nice touch.

    the only critique is that breakfast could be more consistent.

    Charming stay with excellent beach access

    I recently enjoyed a cozy night at this charming inn, which is just a short stroll from the beach. The staff was incredibly warm and welcoming, making my stay feel special. My room, the Swells King, was modern and comfortable with a delightful view. The bar had a great atmosphere and tasty dinner options, but I wish they offered in-room coffee makers for convenience.

    Perfect Beach Getaway

    A charming inn with friendly staff. Enjoyed breakfast downstairs—it was just the fuel needed for our beach day. The ‘Swells King’ room was cozy and clean. Pro tip, request a room away from the front desk for peace and quiet. Loved the short walk to the ocean!

    The Standard Queen Room was clean and modern, which I really liked. It had that cozy New England Inn vibe but felt fresh. Super comfy bed, and we were just a quick walk from the beach, which was awesome. The only bummer was not having an in-room coffee maker. Otherwise, everything was spot on!
